Font size increased to 90 in Font from cinnamon settings

[siddhartha ramesh]

Hey guys I have made a blunder. While i was playing with cinnamon settings I set the font size to 990 from the font icon available in cinnamon settings. Now I cant use any applications because of the font. It garbeles the whole screen. I cannot redo it cos when i somehow manage to open cinnamon settings I cant see the font icon, because of the font size and I even if i maximize that window I cant see the font icon. I can see up to icon themes that's it. Now what to do, Is there any way of setting things to normal. I tried setting cinnamon settings to default but did not work. Now what to do? Is it possible from terminal?

Can you post the output of your cinnamon.css file?

In terminal, type: cat /usr/share/cinnamon/theme/cinnamon.css

I'm not sure if this will work for you. I tried it in LM14 Cinnamon - it worked for me.
If you can open a terminal, enter:

Code: Select all

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name 'Sans 10'

If it works initially, you may still then have to go back to Cinnamon Settings > Fonts and set the default font back to Sans 10 there as well.
